This original research shines a light on the experiences of women in prostitution in Ireland, the involvement of organised criminality in the operation of the sex trade, and policing and legislative responses. The research study is an essential new addition to the evidence base in this field and deconstructs many of the popular misrepresentations regarding the impacts of Ireland’s prostitution legislation on those caught up in this exploitative trade.Speakers: Dr Monica O’Connor and Ruth Breslin (co-authors), SERPChair:	Associate Professor Ursula Barry, Gender Studies, School of Social Policy, Social Work and Social Justice, UCDRespondent: Dr Marie Keenan, Associate Professor, School of Social Policy, Social Work and Social Justice, UCDPlaces are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment!This research was funded by the Department of Justice and Equality under the Dormant Accounts Action Plan 2018, and was supported by the School of Social Policy, Social Work and Social Justice, UCD.
